How I met José Saramago
I went to the lauching of “A Caverna” (The Cave), in Curitiba. An actor read some excerpts from the book and Saramago did a little talk afterwards. His energy and ideals are amazing, I was really impressed by his presence.
Why I admire José Saramago
Because The Year of the Death of Ricardo Reis is the greatest book I’ve ever read about pain, love, sadness, happiness, and most of all, nothingness – in short, about life itself.
